You Can't Take It with You is one of the most revived plays in America. There have been five Broadway productions, the most recent one running from 1983-84 starring Jason Robards, Colleen Dewhurst and James Coco.

You Can't Take It with You was adapted into at least four television versions.

A 1979 television adaptation of You Can't Take It with You featured an all star cast that included Art Carney as Grandpa Vanderhof, Jean Stapleton as Penny Sycamore, Barry Bostwick as Anthony Kirby, Jr., Blythe Danner as Alice Sycamore, Howard Hesseman as Wilbur Henderson, Polly Holliday as Miriam Kirby, Beth Howland as Essie, Kenneth Mars as Kolenkhov, and Marla Gibbs as Rheba.

The play was revived in a 1955 television segment of NBC's Ford Theater called The Fabulous Sycamores and starred Cecil Kellaway as Grandpa Vanderhof.

You Can't Take It with You was turned into a short-lived television series in 1987 starring Harry Morgan as Grandpa Vanderhof.
